Meetings and Rallies were one of the most effective ways of gaining support. Supportivers commitment would have strengthen attending rallies. They also won over bystanders. Rallies also even made non-participants fell they wanted to become art of such an impressive movement. Rallies were carefully organised.
Goebbels described how rallies transformed a person 'from a little worm into a part of a large dragon!' Speer specialised in choreographing the displays etc. by using architecture of light, to create an effect similar to today's pop concerts!
The combination of uniforms, disciplined mass movements, stirring music, striking flags and symbols, often at night, created a powerful feeling of wishing to belong. Then came the adress by Hitler, the master of manipulating mass emotions.
From these pictures you can see the amount of people that would of have been attending. HUGE!
